Wow, that sounds like those games really were way too easy for you. That said, after reading your comment, I can’t help but think that you’re obviously not the target audience for these games. A popular programming-style game marketed at gamers was unlikely to challenge a career programmer, otherwise it would’ve never gotten popular in the first place. For people like you, maybe code competition websites are more suitable?
That’s definitely not Zachtronics, at least any of the games I’ve played. If that game exists it would be pretty awesome—although probably even more niche than Zachtronics games (which weren’t too niche to support the makers for a decade+, granted).

I suppose I was hoping for a programming-based puzzle game, with some new clever insight required to solve each level, rather than pure programming.
